INTERNATIONAL SURVEY OF CATHOLIC WOMEN FOR SYNOD 2021-2023
 Catholic Women Speak, an International forum for dialogue and awareness-raising around issues to do with women in the Catholic Church invites Catholic women to take part in a survey that will form part of a submission to the Synodal process. the Survey takes about 10 minutes to complete and is available in six languages, with further information available on:
https://catholicwomenspeak.com/catholic-women-international-synod-survey/
 They are hoping to collect £10k signatures globally and I have heard they have £3k to date.
 Thank you.  Kind regards.           Margaret Clark
